The first nine blocks in the solution to the single-wide block-stacking problem with the overhangs indicated. In statics, the block-stacking problem (sometimes known as The Leaning Tower of Lire (Johnson 1955), also the book-stacking problem, or a number of other similar terms) is a puzzle concerning the stacking of blocks at the edge of a table.
The profile T c allows that width only at a height of 3,000 mm (9 ft 10 + 1 ⁄ 8 in), requiring a maximum of 3,400 mm (11 ft 1 + 7 ⁄ 8 in) below 1,270 mm (50 in), which matches with the standard for train platforms (with a height of 1,100 mm [43.3 in]).
Rear overhang may present a problem in large vehicles such as buses. Long rear overhang would require the driver to pay attention to nearby vehicles when turning at 90 degrees. Since the rear overhang is outside the wheelbase, it may hit a vehicle in the adjacent lane, especially when turning 90 degrees right (in a right-hand drive country).
Overlength limits vary depending on the type and the configuration of vehicle, but the overall maximum forward distance (i.e. the length from the front of the vehicle to the centre axis of the rear axle set) is 9.5 m (31 ft 2 in), the overall maximum single vehicle length is 12.6 m (41 ft 4 in) (some buses can be longer), and the overall ...
It is necessary to have an appropriate European driving license to drive a large goods vehicle in the European Union.There are four categories: Category C1 allows the holder to drive a large goods vehicle with a maximum authorized mass (gross vehicle weight) of up to 7,500 kg (16,500 lb) with a trailer having a maximum authorized mass of up to 750 kg (1,650 lb).
A CAGE code is a unique identifier to label an entity (that is, a specific government agency or corporation at a specific site) that is a CDA, ODA, or MFR of the part defined by the drawing. One corporation can have many CAGE codes, as can one government, because each division, department, and site (campus) can have its own CAGE code.
The R-148 4×2 and R-149 6×4 differ from the similar layout models R-141 4×2 and R-143 6×4 by the engine and cabin location; the first mentioned models are with a short overhang, in the others the power unit is pushed more forward creating a long overhang, in order to optimise load distribution between the axles.
A three-letter prefix identifies its type and key characteristics, [54] followed by a 4 or 5 digit serial number (4 if prior to October 1, 1993; either 4 or 5 if after October 1, 1993) to uniquely identify it from others of the same type, and ending with a two character (alpha-numerical) suffix identifying the ULD's owner (if an airline, often ...
